How to configure a new Android phone
Discover this strange mixture of excitement and frustration that comes with the movement of your data to a new phone
When you connect to your Google account on an unknown device, as configuring a new installation of chrome, or a new smart projector with Google TV, you will see a prompt on a trusted device like your main phone, search for confirmation. This prompt asking if you perform the action is delivered by a simple service called Google Prompt. Usually you can just type Yes Or No And put an end to, even from the shadow of notification.
However, it is easy to see how this step is practically useless if a bad actor commanded several devices that you have. 9TO5GOOGLE I have just spotted Google’s prompt now showing a low leaf after typing Yes, it’s me. This is the prompt of standard reading services which allows the use of the locking methods of the active device at the time, including fingerprints, unlocking of the face or a spindle.
Additional security is not a bad thing
Does not take more than a second

Given the growing importance of Passkeys, we are happy to see Google extend a similar concept of user authentication on devices to ensure that accounts are not used. To you and me, it should not take more than a few more seconds to grasp this spindle or scan a fingerprint. This workflow replaces the simpler one where you confirm a code displayed on the device you add after pressing Yes option.
This modification of Google invites takes place as part of the version of Play Services 25.02.34 on Android. If it still sounds on your device, you could see it in a few days.
